Mrigashira and Swati Nakshatra Compatibility
Mrigashira and Swati score 26 of 36 gunas in the classical Guna Milan used for marriage matching. That is comfortably above the eighteen-point line most families use, with room to talk through the one or two kootas that fall short.

What the numbers mean for Mrigashira and Swati
Both stars belong to the Deva gana, so Gana — the temperament koota — scores its full 6 points. Temperament is where day-to-day friction shows up first, and matching here is worth more than its number suggests.
Nadi, the heaviest koota at 8 points, scores in full: the two stars fall in different nadis in this calculation, which is the outcome families look for first.
Yoni scores 1 of 4, a neutral pairing on the intimacy koota. Tara, which reads how each partner affects the other's fortune, scores in full.
With the moon in Vrishabha (Taurus) and Tula (Libra), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Vrishabha is ruled by Venus and Tula by Venus, which sets Graha Maitri at 1 of 5 and Vashya at 0 of 2. Varna scores 0 of 1.

About the moon-sign assumption
Four kootas — Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot — read the moon sign, not the star, and a page about two stars has no birth details. Mrigashira spans two signs — padas 1, 2 in Vrishabha; padas 3, 4 in Mithuna — and this page takes Vrishabha (the earlier of an even split). All four padas of Swati fall in Tula. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

Questions people ask
Is Mrigashira and Swati a good match for marriage?
Mrigashira and Swati score 26 of 36 gunas in TrueSaath's Guna Milan calculator, which reads it as "Good match — favourable". That is comfortably above the eighteen-point line most families use, with room to talk through the one or two kootas that fall short. A full kundli with both birth dates, times and places can move this figure, so use the free calculator for a real couple's exact result.
How many gunas match between Mrigashira and Swati?
26 of 36: 18 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 8 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Vrishabha for Mrigashira and Tula for Swati.
Is there nadi dosha between Mrigashira and Swati?
No. In this calculation the two stars fall in different nadis, so Nadi scores its full 8 points and there is no nadi dosha.
Does it matter which of Mrigashira and Swati is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Swati and Mrigashira give the same 26 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
